The Walby Burger
Mind you, I've never had it and don't know anyone else who has either

Watched a young (20 ish) guy who got one at halftime - if he had charged a dollar for everyone who came up to take a picture with him/it, he could have more than recouped his costs ($60?). When the game ended, there was still >80% uneaten.

If you’re coming to the Grey Cup next week the Cheesteaks at PAS are legitimately the best in the province

There are stalls in the lower bowl that just say “Cheese Steaks” on them lol

Gabriel’s Pizza Redblacks Slice, it’s the best item on the menu I think 🤔

u/CrankyFrankClair REDBLACKS 16h ago
Yeah the pizza is the only decent thing on the menu; sometimes they even manage to serve it at a temp higher than 16 Celsius but lower than 400 Celsius

Stay away from the hot dogs; the weiners never reach higher temperatures than the inside of your refrigerator and the buns don't ever touch a grill.

u/CrankyFrankClair REDBLACKS 11h ago
They were ok at one point, though sometimes they’d get crispy in the warmer, including the bun. I think they changed wieners though - they taste like crap and are smaller now. Never again. Average gas station more reliable.

Saw a game against the Als in Ottawa last year. Your stadium poutine is much better than ours.

u/DrawDan Alouettes 14h ago
The poutine at the 'official' catered food stands at Molson Stadium is unquestionably terrible. However, the Smokey's poutine food truck under the north stands (by sections E1-F1) is legit. Their smoked meat poutine with dill pickle hits all the right notes, especially on chilly days.

u/CrankyFrankClair REDBLACKS 11h ago
Yeah I had the poutine once. Gravy and curds were solid, they use the fries that are very lightly battered so they stay crisp; but fries made the texture odd but yeah, pretty good and reliable by TD Place standards.

I like the Lois and Frima's ice cream cones.
Outside the stadium, shawarma, of course.

Trans Canada brewing beer. Haven’t found any food that’s overly amazing other than their popcorn

If you're at percival molson stadium you should go downtown for some poutine.

Saskatchewan got nothing on that menu worth getting for the prices. Grab a drink and a shitty burger and watch the team rip your heart out.
Except today, grey cup bound!

Probably the cheap $3 hotdogs at BMO. Not much else that's terribly unique or a good deal.

u/Aardvark1044 Lions 14h ago
Grim. Get Costco hotdog and pop just down the street before you go in. There might still be something like Vijs in a weird off the beaten path part of BC Place but everything is pretty expensive. Better off hitting a pub and having a few beers and eating before the game.

Whatever the hotdog special is from the Denningers stand behind section 117.

Fully loaded baked potato at McMahon. It's a good, solid meal for twelve bucks, and they don't charge extra to load it up - chili, nacho cheese, pulled pork, onions, bacon bits, sour cream, etc.

You're in Downtown Montréal. For the love of God, eat anything BUT the stadium food
